How to use

A lot of cameras store images of different formats in pairs. For example, the same images will be stored with the same name but with different file extensions. Use this tool to cycle through image pairs and mark different formats for deletion. The deletion shortcuts are as follows:

• Press 2 to delete RAW image.
• Press 3 to delete JPEG.
• Press 4 to delete both formats.

Here is an example workflow:

1. Open a folder containing images to sort using Ctrl+O.
2. Cycle through images using the arrow keys
3. For the displayed image, mark RAW file for deletion.
4. Press Ctrl+D to delete all marked files.
